Also Adam driving around without L plates onWhat I find insane is, in what would would a radio station hire a CHILD, one without any qualifications in therapy, psychology etc to be an agony aunt. Same with the school election, surely it should be an adult to be a counsellor not children. It’s a huge plot hole for me that never made any sense!
I understand it in terms of the first season but when it’s becoming a thing beyond a peer to peer help thing it’s odd!

I felt that about Emma Mackey.same!!
i’ve always found this show difficult to pin down in a realistic time and place though. like in the first series when jackson was wearing a varsity jacket (in a british school?!) and the end of year show they did that had the production values of a broadway musical. it just doesn’t, and never has, rung true to me as a depiction of british teenagers. which i guess is the tone they wanted but i feel like it’s only become more distancing as the show went on.
i’ve struggled my way through another episode and otis is just being the worst still. i also kind of feel like emma mackey is a little over playing maeve. she isn’t bad but there’s something checked out in her performance this series that wasn’t there before.
They said in season one that it was so the show connected with both British and American people so they could relate with the school situationssame!!

she wasn’t bad but there was definitely something “gone” from her as maeve this series i think. it’s making maeve and otis even more tiring to watch!I felt that about Emma Mackey.
The writer said she wanted it to be like an American High School and inspiration from 80’s films by John Hughes.
Which one?I know I shouldn't really say this, but one of the new characters is genuinely one of the ugliest people I've ever seen.
I felt like a lot of the dialogue throughout the series is a bit too curated to make good clips for social media which can be captioned with something like "This was SO POWERFUL" but just end up sounding really forced in the show itselfJust finished the series, Viv's confrontation with her abusive bf felt very after school special, reminded me of this scene from that naff film Cyberbully
